Wednesday [7 till close of play]

(1645) Evening all, dark.

 

13. Which?


12. Ireland


11. Was it years ago I ran this song?

And discussed it with Toodles. Well today, I discussed it with MMutR and the different views were … interesting. Assuming we were in an acceptable age bracket, whom would we go up to to talk to? Previously I thought the white shirt dancer in the staged thing on the bridge, start and end, plus red track trousers but she might be a bit iffy, red track trousers … switching my attention to the female professional dancer for a cup of coffee.

10. What percentage are O’Brien listeners?


9. Redaction


8. Lenin/Stalin … take out the farmers

Midweek Matinee

 

Not quite sure of my timings this morning, so best post this early … there’s a second for later if need be … quite liked seeing Shirley Eaton again but just shy of two years later, she would get her comeuppance elsewhere, involving gold paint.

Wednesday [6]

(0905) Time is tightening here folks, as I have a certain amount of housework before my visitor … this might be the last before late afternoon, maybe a couple more. (0926)

 

The essential problem with all of these fine people below

Rupert (similar in parlmt):


The problem is not in what they say, all are probably correct. The problem is that all we can ever do, given our personal circumstances, plus the way we drop into the stoic “mustn’t grumble” we’ve been brought up to do … ensures NOTHING is done …

… and those evil muvvers, in vicious alliance, who are combining to do this to us, are grinning at Suzanne Evans and Co … who are complaining bitterly …

… and that’s it.

Until the next Sep 13th type march. Which completely ignores that we are going to first starve and then be hit by the third world army waiting in every town and hamlet in the land. The obvious question is … even if all the wokeleft and normies, all of us too, finally woke up to the extant danger (the raped and murdered girls know exactly how it is) … what can actually be done?

Can we suddenly lay our hands on sufficient firepower and even if we could … the wokerati, plus normies, would call such a thought racist or something. And are we trained as soldiers once they strike? To keep pleading with govt is followed with angrily pleading … these bstds are on an agenda, are they not? As if it makes the slightest difference to them, the pleading … they’re “the elite”, or so the real elite tells the non-comps.

Wednesday [2 to 5]

(0641) Morning all, light coming up out there, this afternoon is going to be busy, visitor, so most blogging will be until around 11 and after 4. (0712)

 

5. Feel the decay in Britain

JH: Shall check out this new Focal Points publication asap … difficult day today here. Initial look … McCullough Foundation and something called MPH … have not worked out what that is yet. Shall explore.

3. This is that woman up to her old tricks again

It’s on Quora, so iffy for a start, it’s Princess Anne on Sparkle:

Princess Anne described this press-release from California as nonsense, and pure wishful thinking: “The visit to see his father shows there is a thawing in their relationship which will lead to bringing King Charles and Prince Harry together at Royal events in a public show of unity.”

It was from a piece by a Benjamin Smallbrook, Truth or Conspiracy? Quora is not completely Reddit left … it’s more the old Readers Digest, for both sexes, for normies whose main source is the MSM, who watch the tele in the evening.

2. DAD at 1200

Reflections on November 11th in France.

I have done a little maths about the Memorial in my village. There are 43 names recorded on the Memorial of those who died during WW1. Several families lost two, one family lost……

It is not surprising that 11/11/1918 is so very important in France.

a) Puy du Fou and Bleuet de France honor the memory of those who died for France……

b) …but, as usual, The Left disgrace themselves. 11th Novembre à Lyon…..

JH: For that to make sense, see DAD at NOWP 1200.

Wednesday [1]

(0217)(0259)

 

A mad flurry of snippets

One thing I’ve learnt in doing this punditry thing is that if you don’t record or bookmark at the time, it’s usually lost forever. If we see something, we run it there and then, even in the middle of the night.

Two I was exploring at the same time were why Candace Owens is being so heavily attacked, to the point she put up an Xpost showing the datestamps of assertions she was making … that one later if it comes up again … and the other is just why Natalie Winters dropped off the radar so swiftly. One moment Steve is posting and I’m running everything Natalie … then almost nothing.


This from Right Angle News:


There’s some supposed victim of Epstein who says there’s footage of DJT grabbing (cough) but no evidence is shown … Demonrats are running with that one. More if it surfaces.

Some other topics this a.m.

Someone called Lattina Brown:


Our Steve is fairly pro DJT and so is Darl here, a Christian from Massachusetts, close to me but seemingly confused by my DJT output of late … fine people, both:


Oh dear, wonder if Darl and I are underage … how exciting.


Obviously Russian or other eastern European source, that one.

Right, back to bed for some sleep if possible for a few hours.

Tuesday [21 till close of play]

(1645) Almost evening all.

 

22. X

There’s no doubt at all that, on sheer numbers, it is the premier platform, but having said that, Elon’s role is peculiar … he is ensuring, in one way, that non Wokerati have “a home” but in the next breath, we’re banned or shadow banned.

One of the ways is that even our mutual connecters, so to speak, e.g. Moosh and me, can go for hours, even half a day, with no post from the other, even searching the person’s timeline, then next morning, suddenly there can be a flurry of up to a dozen appear, esp those with “18 hours ago”, “12 hours ago” … they were posted, it’s not that that Xer was busy … those multiposting usually have the same timeframe.

Thus someone has held those posts back from being published … someone has been going through them, deciding if to allow them through. If I’m trying to post and it’s sensitive to the narrative, it will often say something went wrong, try later … or else it says I can repost or comment, not both. Bizarre. There are ways around it.

That’s mild compared to what happens to others of “our” point of view. One fave is their followers suddenly drop in number. With me, they’ve been frozen for months. So the left is still in there, causing mayhem … I’d say Elon never even gets to know.

Every major player non Fabian in the main but some who are make their announcements on X. I’d say Anna Paulina is the most prolific, plus Rupert over here.

… with one of our fave ladies, Isabelle V-S.

Tue Mat

 

“Simon isn’t very happy with a hoodlum getting off free or his win-at-all-costs attorney. So, Simon decides to take matters into his own hands in the name of justice.

There’s nothing really wrong with The Element of Doubt, but (and I’m starting to sound like a broken record) it doesn’t feel like an episode of The Saint. In this case, Roger Moore’s Simon Templar isn’t even involved until there are only about 15 minutes left. There are at least 30 minutes of runtime where I all but forgot Moore was even in the show. The courtroom drama is fine and reasonably entertaining, but without Simon, it’s not really The Saint.

A couple other things that bothered me: (1) Everyone seems upset by defence attorney Carlton Rood’s (a nice performance from David Bauer, by the way) courtroom tactics. I don’t get it. He doesn’t do anything any other competent attorney wouldn’t do. His role is to represent his client to the best of his ability and, if possible, get the charges dropped against, And at that, he’s successful. Does he do anything illegal? No. Does he do anything unethical?

Maybe, but it’s up to the prosecuting attorney to object and deal with. Rood shouldn’t be blamed because he out-foxed and out-maneuvered the prosecuting attorney while he sat on his hands. (2) Once Simon finally does make an appearance, his plan to seek justice is so obvious and so juvenile that there’s no way it should have worked. A smart guy like Rood would have seen through Simon’s plan and that ridiculous accent straight away. I just wasn’t impressed with anything The Saint did in this episode.”

Tuesday [16 to 20]

(1138) Happy elevenses, all. OH dear, something decided to play up and I lost most of my post. However, there was a way around it … not a good way but at least a way … (1602)

 

16. Last on Armistice Day for now


Two items to finish this remembrance … first is from History Girl:

Second is from me, trying to put Armistice Day in context. It starts early morning, at dawn, in the Antipodes and as you know, the earth turns, the 11 a.m. moves on westwards.

So Singapore and other places with Allied troops still there commemorate it, Poland does for example … and then France:

Then we cross the ditch to Britain and …

NOTHING, not a bleedin’ thing!

Not officially, though many do post on social media, free of the MSM, pollies, the Wokerati and the far left.

Then it crosses the pond, past various islands and reaches the US and Canada. Finally it goes full circle back to NZ. In that 24 hour continuum, the only major nation among the Allies to let everyone down is the UK.

However, that’s only officially. On a site such as X, it was beautiful watching it go around the world, as Christmas does and there were many Brits posting about the commemoration, reading those words, hearing that sound. They preferred to do it internationally today. As some of us did here at HQ and over at OoL.

So it’s now done for us, 1157, nearly afternoon, and it crosses the pond. I love such continuums around the world.

……

1520: Well, I was wrong about no one observing it in Britain … can’t even say officially as Wills and Kate were at it. And online, quite a few Brits … so that’s just nice. Plus a nice indoors type day here.
